How to store the whole durian? How long can it last?

How to store the whole durian: You can store the whole durian in a cool and ventilated place for natural storage. This method can keep it for three to four days. You can also wrap the durian with a layer of paper and store it naturally, which can extend the storage time by three to four days. You can also store the whole durian in the refrigerator for about a week.

Can the durian be left open overnight?

Durian can be left overnight after it is opened, but the correct storage method must be used, otherwise the durian may go bad. Opened durian can only be kept for about half a day at room temperature, so it is usually wrapped in plastic wrap, a plastic bag or a fresh-keeping box and stored in the refrigerator. The low temperature environment of the refrigerator can inhibit the growth and reproduction of bacteria and other microorganisms, and extend the shelf life of durian. If the opened durian is left at high temperature and not eaten, it will change taste and deteriorate after about 3-4 hours and cannot be eaten anymore.

Even if the opened durian is properly stored, it is recommended to be eaten within two days. Otherwise, it will become soft and juicy, reducing the taste and changing the flavor.

Precautions for storing peeled durian in the refrigerator

The peeled durian flesh can be kept in the refrigerator for a few more days. Durian has the property of ripening, so it should be stored in a cool place. The ripe fruit will crack. At this time, the flesh can be taken out, put into a fresh-keeping bag and stored in the refrigerator. After being chilled, it will have the taste of ice cream. As long as the durian is sealed with a fresh-keeping paper bag and tied tightly, it will not smell in the refrigerator. Usually it is sealed in a lunch box and put in a fresh-keeping bag. Durian can be eaten one petal at a time. As long as the other petals are not opened, the other petals with the shell can still be kept in the refrigerator for a few days.

If the flesh turns sour, it means that the durian has gone bad and should not be eaten. It should not be kept for a long time, otherwise the fragrance will disappear and it will be softer than before.
